Service area and timing
Standard service coverage is based on the service delivery address—not necessarily your home address—within approximately 10 km of Orange CBD. Locations outside this area and after-hours requests are reviewed individually and are reviewed individually before a booking is offered.
Clinical eligibility
This service is available to adults aged 18 years or older. Heart, lung, kidney or liver disease; swelling or fluid retention; urinary abnormalities; chronic or unexplained abdominal symptoms; significant allergies, medications or other medical complexity require individual review.
Do not delay ordinary or urgent medical assessment while waiting for hydration. Call 000 for a medical emergency.
Call-out and assessment policy
If IV hydration cannot be provided following the treating clinician’s in-person assessment, a call-out and assessment fee may apply and the remaining treatment fee will be refunded. Central West Vitality may waive that fee and provide a full refund where appropriate.
Completion of an online screen or payment does not guarantee treatment. The treating clinician makes the final decision after assessment.
